From FUTURES.IO I found Mack's PATs on 11/1/2018, studied his PDF manual,
website posts & videos & Forum, and Youtube videos.
Started SIM trading 1/7/2020, making breakthrough in 2022 with 2 months solid SIM profits and 85%+ win rate.
I continue to work on the skill of trading, drawing trendlines and range boundaries,
recognizing and attempting to take only 2nd entries at Mack's Key Entry Points.
Stopped taking failures, reversals, hidden entries and gambling while hoping a trade would work.
Learning to sit patiently for hours until a no brainer 2nd entry develops, then pull the trigger,
let the trade play out fully without fooling around with the trade.

2022 is an important year for price action traders because several of Mack's students are posting
video analysis and live trades on their Youtube channels:

Take the Money and Run - Starting to Break the Rules:

Felt my concentration and patience failing, this lead to months of poor trading in the past.
Decided this time to just quit, take the money now with only 3 losses on the month.
Knew if I continued trading, I'd give it all back and more for a big losing month.

The break was only going to last until Nov 1, but realized no break, no vacation in 5 years.
Realized I was mentally fatigued, missing triggers when one bar ticked above/below another.
Now on extended break from taking trades, instead studying what I please and decided to post here.

The attached trades are when I sensed a loss in focus, decided to take my ball and go home.

Mack did not mark any of the trades because they are bad.
